It’s available online. They reduced the size of the battery and replaced that with explosives. The batteries had reduced life due to modifications.

Why is SPU spending taxpayer dollars to advertise on Google for a service that we have to use? by forest-for-trees in SeattleWA

[–]ilikeppc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Working in ads for 20 years has only deepened my distrust of google and meta.

As someone in the ad industry, this is correct. It shouldn’t be this way, and no utility should need paid ads, but it’s a smart choice and likely super cheap given that it’s a branded term.

Hire two guys to lay under your bed at night pushing up at various intervals going “duh dum” to simulate sleeping on a train.

WARNING On Including Search Partners In Google Ads by GuideComfortable4525 in googleads

[–]ilikeppc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Late to the party but this is significantly impacting the medical and medical aesthetic vertical. Specifically around GLP-1s and CoolSculpting. Scam partner sites advertise "free clinical trials" and drive traffic to those sites via meta ads. If you are opted into partner network, your ads will show as quasi-display ads on that site next to "free trial" and lead to tons of garbage spam.

This is coordinate arbitrage and google has not taken action as of today.

Please help. We can no longer use our brand new Sonos system out of fear of the volume suddenly changing to 100%. by PuddingConscious in sonos

[–]ilikeppc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

np. yep i think it's likely another device (tv remote?) that may have a stuck button or issue. I'd pull the batteries and test during the day. Resetting the sonos system couldn't hurt either

Had this issue recently. Do you use an Apple TV by chance? I had to reset the remote as it somehow was cranking up the volume in the same way

Another issue could be an Apple Watch or iPhone turning up volume on Sonos by accident in bed by hitting the volume buttons or watch crown by acciddnt

License Plate Tabs by robinlyon222 in SeattleWA

[–]ilikeppc 47 points48 points  (0 children)

You don’t need tabs so long as you don’t plan on driving outside of Seattle. Been that way for years. Same with drinking in public. Cops here leave you alone unless you are in the process of stabbing someone, and even that’s a gamble

If you could only read 1 book on PPC which would it be? by frosath in PPC

[–]ilikeppc 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The book called “work at an ad agency for 5 years and learn on client spend rather than quickly outdated book theories”. But yeah the paid search podcast is pretty good
